MD003 - Header style

Tags: headers

Aliases: header-style

Parameters: style ("consistent", "atx", "atxclosed", "setext", "setextwith_atx"; default "consistent")

This rule is triggered when different header styles (atx, setext, and 'closed' atx) are used in the same document:

# ATX style H1

## Closed ATX style H2 ##

Setext style H1
===============

Be consistent with the style of header used in a document:

# ATX style H1

## ATX style H2

The setextwithatx doc style allows atx-style headers of level 3 or more in documents with setext style headers:

Setext style H1
===============

Setext style H2
---------------

### ATX style H3

Note: the configured header style can be a specific style to use (atx, atxclosed, setext, setextwith_atx), or simply require that the usage be consistent within the document.

MD032 - Lists should be surrounded by blank lines

Tags: bullet, ul, ol, blank_lines

Aliases: blanks-around-lists

This rule is triggered when lists (of any kind) are either not preceded or not followed by a blank line:

Some text
* Some
* List

1. Some
2. List
Some text

To fix this, ensure that all lists have a blank line both before and after (except where the block is at the beginning or end of the document):

Some text

* Some
* List

1. Some
2. List

Some text

Rationale: Aside from aesthetic reasons, some parsers, including kramdown, will not parse lists that don't have blank lines before and after them.

Note: List items without hanging indents are a violation of this rule; list items with hanging indents are okay:

* This is
not okay

* This is
  okay
